The 2022 Spur Road Nozzari Vineyard Pinot Noir is a wine of refined elegance and vivid character — a single-vineyard expression from the Spur Road label that showcases the kind of site-specific precision and restraint that makes California Pinot Noir at its best so deeply compelling. The Nozzari Vineyard is a distinguished site that delivers Pinot Noir of genuine depth and personality, its unique soils, aspect, and microclimate producing fruit of beautiful aromatics and natural acidity. Spur Road's philosophy of vineyard-driven winemaking ensures that each bottle speaks clearly of its source, allowing the Nozzari Vineyard's distinctive character to shine through without interference from heavy-handed cellar techniques.
In the glass, the 2022 Spur Road Nozzari Vineyard Pinot Noir is a wine of captivating aromatics and silky texture — ripe cherry, wild strawberry, and raspberry are lifted by notes of violet, dried rose petal, earth, and subtle spice, while the palate is supple and precise, with fine-grained tannins, bright acidity, and a long, persistent finish that invites another sip. This is a Pinot Noir of genuine sophistication: complex enough to intrigue the most discerning wine lover, yet accessible and joyful enough for any occasion. Serve slightly below room temperature alongside roasted duck breast, salmon en papillote, mushroom risotto, or a classic roast chicken with herbs.
